Proud Richard's Restaurant

Service was extremely slow eventhough the place was not that crowded. Meal was ok, nothing special. Not worth the drive.

Chicken parmesan was flavorful however the spaghetti sauce was salty. Love the decor and style and creative location of this restaurant.

When we went they were a little short staff, so everything took a little longer, but was well worth the wait. Excellent food and appreciated the heads up that there would be a little wait for things due to low levels of staff.

Never again!!
Went tonight for my 65th birthday..
last year I was in the ICU.. WTH
the only person that was so nice to us was the bartender, she was lovely 😊 on our entrance and departure.
our so called waitress was just awful, she basically threw our appetizers (4 total) at each of our individual guests that two didn’t even order 😢
Then, when our entrees finally arrived (50+ minutes later) she didn’t even ask us if our food was okay.. she never came back to our table.
My daughter in law asked for a to go box for an appetizer and it was basically thrown at her. Our kids paid for my birthday dinner and I left a really good tip as usual.. now I wish I didn’t 😢
We came here before right before Mothers Day and were treated the same way!?
We gave this establishment a second chance. Way way too expensive for food and no good customer service period!! and no way will we ever come back again.

Sorry no pictures! I forgot to take pictures the food was AMAZING! I had the French Onion soup, probably one of the best I have had. Super flavorful, I got the cup, I should have gotten the bowl. 😉. Then I had the roasted beet salad with grilled chicken. Yes I ate the whole thing, It had goat cheese and toasted bread crumbs. Yes I had to have the Lemon Dream bar as dessert.
The service was great, the staff answered all my questions. Love this place, great decor and awesome bar! 5 stars all around.

Took my wife here for Valentine’s Day and it did not disappoint service was great and the food was amazing definitely the best place to eat out in town and we will be returning. As someone with celiac disease I loved that they put on the menu which items are gluten free.

Had the place not had a stinch (close to raw sewage is the best way I can describe it) I would've given a 5 star review. This odor hit me as soon as I hit the door all though it wasn't pungent like other times I've smelled raw sewage the smell never left, it stayed the same smell the entire time we were there. Had we not driven over an hour to come check this place we would've probably went somewhere else. According to all the reviews and looking over the prices I assumed I wouldn't have to worry about dealing with a foul odor the entire dining experience but I was wrong. I expected Richard to come by and apologize for the odor due to some issue they were trying to fix due to it being an older building but he did not and no one came to ask if our meal was cooked correctly it or if tasted well, nothing like that and we literally right next to the kitchen door. The waiter did ask us if we needed a box though lol so I guess technically she did check on us. The food was delicious and that's putting it lightly but the stinch and the service were not what I would expect from an establishment that's as proud of their prices as Richard's was. Ya I could've said something to my waiter but she was already hard enough to catch her to get us to go boxes and she didn't seem too concerned about whether my mother's or my experience was good or not I think she just wanted us out of her booth so she could have the opportunity to get more tips. I understand wanting to get more tips but there has to be a good reason to get tips and I didn't see many good reasons to give her much of a tip. I may try this place again in a month just because the food was amazing.
